I have recently discovered Roger Kimball’s blog. You can look down the list of his books and see that he is one of the good guys. You might also watch his lecture on The Closing of the American Mind. I enjoyed it as an essay in the NC, and I also enjoyed hearing him deliver it. It still amazes me that so much of Kimball’s, and also of another essay in the NC, is against Rock music and its pollutions.

Commentary has branched its blogging out to include The Horizon, a blog about art and culture. It looks pretty good so far. Old Podhoretz got on there a few days ago and linked to a satisfying article on the Beowulf movie. One wonders why anybody thought something like this even worth watching, let alone reviewing, but the result of having an Anglo-Saxon scholar make a witty review is worth reading.

And last of all but still keeping with the theme of thought and imagination, here is a lecture by by Bauder on Imagining God. It makes me think there ought to be a page with all these sermons and lectures linked for future reference.
